The aim of this work is to understand the cause (rainfall amount and intensity) and the effect (runoff and sediment yield) of natural events at plots with different topography, located in badland areas, 2 km northeast of Lanaja (Huesca), and compare

In the Ebro Basin, piping is an ubiquitous erosion process in badland areas, occuring in 2 main situations : on slopes of exposed Tertiary clays and in recently incised silty-clay Holocene valley-fill sediments. The quantitative importance
